This chain looks like it’s doubling on itself as it departs the crank sprocket. Absent tension, it continues on the sprocket. Further turning the crank sprocket could cause problems.

Unfortunately by not having the chain tensioner installed the first time when I turned the engine by hand the timing did got out of whack. Had to take of the rockers and free the cam to get the timing correct again. Hopefully in the two days I have time to install the last bits and pieces and get it running again.
I found one casualty from when I took off the head, a small plug with a single wire, the wire on bought side came off, I think it leads to the kick down switch on the transmission, correct?
